METHOD FOR TREATING THE CASES OF OSTEOMYELYTIS OF THE CALCANEUS

摘要

FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves applying radical sequestronecrectomy by carrying out wedge-like resection of the damaged bone area, transecting it at the level of the so made cavity height and in vertical direction in continuing one of the lateral wall cavity. Controlled rotation of the created posterior plantar fragment rotation is carried out to bring the opposite cavity walls in engagement holding them fixed until adhesion takes place. EFFECT: prevented recidivation; reduced mechanical strength of calcaneus.
